It0402,
YOU STRUCK A NERVE IN ME! A GOOD ONE!!!!! Thank you for your straight-forwardness and seeing me stuck in a lazy pity party. You are so right. I am the only one who can choose the way I react to this, and about the only thing I still have any control over. I am up and at 'em today! I've already gone and bought bedding plants and feel better already. I'm painting an old piece of furniture today and brightening up my house with it. I'm going to a girlfriend's house for overnight to watch a TV marathon of a PBS series that we love and haven't seen yet, then on to a wedding shower tomorrow where I'll see some great friends and reconnect. Spending Sunday night with my son, which always is fun- he is so compassionate with my situation, and can always get a laugh out of me. Then he and his partner are coming back home with me Monday for a few days. So THERE! I feel better already. My biggest hang-up is exercise. That's going to be what I focus my mind on this next week, and just do it.
Thanks, again. I know this will help ME, not my sitch, and that's all I need right now.
